Displaylink is not a real monitor. It is a workaround. It is using a video stream to get the output. So video or gaming is not goting to work well.

- Joeri 5y agoAnecdotal reports online seem to indicate displaylink on m1 is fine for everything except gaming including 4k60 video. M1 is not something you really want to do gaming on anyway, especially not with multiple monitors. I’ve done a video conference on my m1 air through a displaylink-connected monitor and I couldn’t tell the difference from having it on the built in screen. I guess it depends what people want to do, but I think for most people most of the time this is a perfectly suitable solution on m1 (not so much on older weaker intel cpu’s though).
